I've been looking for a vintage "lawn" tractor to mow my grass - something like a Farmall/IH Cub or Allis B/C with a belly mower. How cool would that be in the 'burbs? Anyway, it got me thinking - can I even safely run pump gas in these things? Surely none of the fuel system seals are ethanol-resistant, and the motors are designed for leaded gas. What do you vintage iron owners use in your tanks? Do fuel system seals need to be updated? Do you put in a lead replacement additive of some kind?
